Rossoneri Round-up fro 13 January: Lucas Paqueta makes his Milan debut

Besides two fantastic goals for Patrick Cutrone in extra time, this Coppa Italia match will be remembered as Lucas Paqueta’s debut for Milan.

Paqueta looked good and showed flashes of his ability as a playmaker, Of course, this was his first match and he’s had almost no time to adjust to his teammates and without a proper preseason we won’t know exactly how he’ll fit in, but this was still a pretty decent debut with a glimpse of the future.
